To Hate The Free Market.

There are people that hate the free market. The question why more people do not hate the free market. Many people love the free market because of what in produces. Which is reason enough to love it. I am not question why people love the Free Market. It is the most democratic process, allowing even the minority to have a choice between produces and firms, even if the minority is out of favor. It also produces a life style unmatched.
But if you look at the Free Market, there is an order. You can not say there is not. It has a rhythm. It deliver on certain expectations. It doesn't not pat itself on the back(we economist have to do that). And it's trajectory is more and more freedom. It is of human action, but not human design. It is created and substantiated by GOD. Yes anything complex man makes will fall in on itself. Complexity means Negative "black Swans."[please see Black Swan by Nassim Taleb]Not only is the market complex, but the more complex it becomes the more stable it becomes, the more innovations it produces.
Many people hate the Free market, it is a wonder of GOD, I am surprise not more people do. Praise be to HIS NAME, glory abundance.

Review 1:High School Confidential

There is a great book out called "High School Confidential" By author Jeremy Iversen. Go look on Youtube for an interview or better yet just read the book. I am going to assume you have aleast read a review of what this book is about.

I am very impressed with this Author. It is both there and not there. Jeremy Iversen is almost a ghost, who can take you threw walls, social circles and into the dirt. First part is like a heist plot then it settles down. The content is rough, but so is high school.
Everyone knows what is wrong and everyone plays their part. It is a machine and Iversen moves you through the working parts as they become self aware, yet are unable to free themselves not because of any physical restraint, although they cite the prison atmosphere of the school, but because they are tragic. They know they are tragic. They know you can't spend 5 hours hating everything, break with groping and sex, and go back to hating everything, and not sound ridiculous when you complain about freedom.
I want to praise the LORD YESHUA HAMASHIACH, not because I am better then these people, but this would be the best the world has to offer and only in HIM is there joy or purpose.

On the Evil Inclination

There is no such thing as the "Evil Inclination" in either the Old or New Testaments. There is sin, there is Sin Nature, the is the Devil and evil Spirits. There is the Flesh, the old man. Puke we return to. There is darkness, and evil. Fallen nature *check*. But there is no "EVIL INCLINATION."
Man made doctrine Alert. My Jewish Friend and Messianic Friends. If you can show me the Bible the Evil Inclination I will happily change my tune and issue an apology.

A question for my generation

Let say you are in a waiting room at a firm waiting a job interview. Lets imagine who else who is competing for that job based off of unemployment rate. At 1% no one else is there with you. At 3% maybe 4 other guys that look like you. At 8% you begin to have college graduates with a better degrees. At 10% you have someone one that has all your particular talents and about 20 years of experience on you. What happens at 11,13,15,20,25,30% unemployment? Don't look Celbs, they have jobs. You have the talent of Katy Perry, or make the funny like John Steward?

Fear Means Fear.

I have heard much smarter men then me(and in truth not so smart), and men that should know better push a doctrine that is absurd. They substitute the word “fear” for the word “awe.” That we should be in awe of Yehovah and not in fear of HIM. There are two problems with this.
1.“Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” (Mathew 10:28). I can go on and on about fear being fear. Instead I will show the implications of this bad thinking. “At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps and punish those who are complacent, who are like wine left on its dregs, who think, 'The LORD will do nothing, either good or bad.”(Zephaniah 1:12). The Bible shows how Yehovah operates in lives of men back then, today, and till the end of time.
2.Feeling “Awe.” I cringe a little in my heart when any pastor wants his congregation to feel anything. We are powerless to start any sincerely good emotion towards GOD. We are sinful in our very soul. Our emotions are corrupted. Holiness and joy are as far from each other in our minds, we might as well have dictionaries begin with the letter 'H' and end in the letter 'j'. We can put on a smile. We can laugh. But it is not real joy nor laughter. You relate to GOD because he revels Himself in a related fashion. If GOD shows you HE is a mighty fortress. Then you take that testimony into you heart and you can always relate to HIM as your Mighty Fortress. Same with Salvation, same with joy, same with redeemer, same with LORD, same with king, same with ALL-IN-ALL. Wanting does not mean having. Seeking does not mean possessing. You knock then the door is open. You seek then you find. You ask then you are answered. Which means you are going to know unrest before you find HIS rest. You are going to be striped of strength before you find HIS strength. I am a Christian I should be able to relate to GOD as I want. You can't. Your will is weak.

On Going To Jerusalem


Going to Jerusalem. I can't pretend a bunch of crumbled stones left on top of one another gets my heart fluttering. I can't do it.
Israel use to be the spot between the Empire Assyria and Babylon in the North and Egypt in the South. Then later Roman in the West and India and China in the East. Jerusalem was the Capital of a trade route. There were structures with no parrell even in Roman. Not my opinion but Tiberius.

Frederic Bastiat's THE LAW

I enjoyed Frederic Bastiat essay THE LAW. I would like to expound on one of his theories.
The greatest right of man is his right to self defense. This is mans force. When men from a government they combine their forces into one force. That is the entire origin of government is this combining of forces and men. Where government go arwe is that it believes that it is not a combining of force but a combining of ideas, or faith, or families. The government is not a church, which a combining of men of the same faiths. A Government is not a merger of generosity, that's a charity. A government is not a bond of blood, that's a marriage. A government is not collection of ideas that is a college(or use to be).
It is a legitimate to combine Governments with charity or faiths or ideas, as is it to give a church an army or a charity billy clubs or a wedding in an octagon. My retracters will say I don't like charity. I hate education. I hate church and salvation. I want to drive over body over bodies on my way to the next book burning(please I am trying to prove a point, don't take it out of context). A combination of force and charity is a shake down. Faith and force a fataw. Education and force is a Re-education Camp. Force and a family is the Mob.

Letter's to Andrew # who knows.

Andrew's Rebuttal

By Morgan
I have to break this up so that it easy to respond to your questions one at a time.

1a. Interesting that you seem to be the first person that considers special revelation on par with God's holy scriptures, essentially rendering the canon still open.
1m. No it does not. The Canon of Scripture is closed. I do not use Special Revelation in any of my doctrinal proofs. Nor do I use experience. And I have made it perfectly clear in the last post. “If X then Y arguments is a separate argument. If you wish to convince me then that is a new post.”

2a. Even many continuationists would NEVER say that, but then again this isn't the first time I've heard you espouse beliefs no one else holds.

2m. I don't know the Continuationists. You can't shame me with continuationist because I don't know them. I know scripture(at least in this case)
3a. If God speaking to people is the same as scripture, then why do we need the bible? Why not just let God speak to everyone?
3m. “Jesus Loves this I know because the of what.” GOD doesn't love everyone. GOD doesn't accept everyone. There are smart, better, and more generous people in hell today then me. GOD does hate.(Malachi 1:3; Romans 9:13) There is nothing about me that would ingender(MS) love above another. So how do I know that I am personally loved? Personal Revelation. As for the Bible it is the truth. It is to be meditated on and it sets people free from non-willful deception. It does not cast out evil. It does not save. GOD saves.

4a.As for your argument that scripture never says the gifts of the spirit have ceased, I would ask you to please show me where it says the have continued and are for today. Please do not use the first two passages you quoted above either because neither one are even close to making a case for the canon to remain open.
4m. The gifts do not constitute the canon being open first of all. The Canon is Closed because there are no more Apostles. We do not believe because of the Miracles or on the miracles or by inference from the miricules. No we believe because He commands us to believe and with force over takes us. We could have every prophet who ever lived performing every miracles they ever did and still people would not turn from their ways. “"Woe to you, Korazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.” Luke 10
You don't get to say those are legitimate points, those are not legitimate points, unless you prove it so. You are not Barrak Obama. You don't get to play and ref. They are still in play. They are still instructional when Christ spoke on this earth as they are today. The Bible is fully relevant today as it was when it was written.
5a. I base my understanding that special gifts have ceased, not on one specific verse saying so
5b. Because there is no verse saying so. Because someone told you so. Because you don't see them for yourself. Because your teachers took on the mantel of authority and if they are unworthy to get the KINGDOM of GOD at least they can get the respect before men.

6a., but rather on an overview and understanding of the purpose of the gifts shown in scripture. When properly understood that the gifts of that time served a specific purpose (to confer and establish the authority of the apostles and essentially the church) then now we see they are no longer needed.
6m. Apostolic Gifts did not establish authority. There is no where that it did. Mark 9:38 “Teacher," said John, "we saw a man driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us."

7a.Remember, they did not have the complete canon as we do now. Well I guess that point is lost on you since you deem the canon incomplete.
7m. I reminded you of that they did not have the complete canon in the last post. Don't get snippy on me with my own point.

8a.Anyway, I could give much more specific examples on the specific purposes of specific gifts, but time and space limit me.
8m. You have me Zero example.

But here Are my examples. Off the top of my head.

9M.Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death,[a] and of faith in God, 2instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. Hebrews 6:1-2

Elementary teaching...the laying on of hands...

10M. "'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.”
According to your logic the visions have yet to be seen so the canon is still open. “ Interesting that you seem to be the first person that considers special revelation on par with God's holy scriptures, essentially rendering the canon still open”

11M. my first piece of scriptural evidence you want to throw out.
12M. My second piece of scriptural evidence you want to throw out.

Ideas and Doctrine The New Testament Does NOT Teach.

By Morgan McGee

1.Yeshua HaMashia(Christ) did not come to create a new law and replace the old law. A sin in the Old Testament disposition is a sin in the New. The phrase or idea, “If a Commandment, from the Mosaic covenant, appears in the New Testament it should be followed, if it does not then a then you are freed from it.” Does not appear in the New Testament. The Apostle Paul criticized the new Church for not following the law.
2.Abrahamic Covenant was not nullified by the Mosaic Covenant. The Mosaic Covenant was not replaced with the Davidic Covenant. And the Covenant of our Savior did not replace the rest of the Covenants. Covenants are not cars, with the 05' models being replaced with the 06'.
3.The Idea or concept that miracles, visions, personal revelations by Yehovah, gifts and tongues not occuring in our times, does not exist in the New Testament. (So not to sound confusing on any matter) Miracles, visions, personal revelations, gifts of the Holy Spirit and tongues did not come with an expiration date attached to them with the closing of the Book of Revelations. “He will do even greater things-” John 14:12.

Let me put it another way. What is the Kingdom Of GOD and what do kingdoms do? “24But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, “It is only by Beelzebub, the prince of demons, that this fellow drives out demons.”
25Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand. 26If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then can his kingdom stand? 27And if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your people drive them out? So then, they will be your judges. 28But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.” Is demonic Position happening today? Are we, the Church, being over come by evil, socially, economically and with in temptation. Are legitimate Born Again Believers in Yeshua HaMashia being over come today? Yes. We have retreated into suburbia, or thick church walls, to heavy populated Christian Cities and let the Devil control the rest. If we do not over come then we are over come. There is no neutral ground.
4. The Bible is easy. You have to widdle the Word out context down to next to nothing to get an easy idea out of it. At that point the Word says nothing different then what the World puts out. Now where in the New Testament says the BIBLE is easy

American Drug Policy

Drugs are nothing new. And yes they are natural. Nor is the restriction of drugs, or the war on drugs. What is the objections to the Drug War. 1. It doesn't work 2. It's costly 3. It takes away freedom 4. People can still get drugs, you can't stop people. 5. People still want drugs. 6. It treats people like children, that's just going to make it more.
1.It doesn't work. The War on Drug doesn't work. The War on loneliness, murder, political corruption, bad grammar, wrinkles, all do not work.
2.It's costly. It's expensive. Do drugs increase productivity? No. So the lack of drugs makes individual more productive.
3.It takes away freedom. Yes criminals freedoms are taken away. I also can't buy a nuclear weapon for some dry leave in my backyard. I can't wear a blind fold while drive.
4.People can still get drugs, you can't stop people from getting a fix. You are right. The policy is not to watch over every last person and there behavior, but to give a rock bottom that is not a grave.
5.People want drugs. How can it be wrong when it feels so right. Popularity has noting to do with right and wrong. It is not an opinion poll. Everyone opinions are not equal.
6.It's treating people like children. Yes, because they are acting like children. A feen does not care about reason. It's hard, I know, for libertarians to come to grasp with the fact that many people do not operate on reason. And like children they don't understand why things are valuable, what is worth treasuring. They will reason just as far as they get their fix. A child has nothing against arguing. Children will argue with you if you stand between whatever harmful, narrow-minded, shiny-potential-car-wreck, while claiming they are old enough till they have to pay for their youth.
Opium are native to the mountain lands of Burma. It is used as currency. It is not uncommon to see presents strung out in villages. And it is next to impossible to remove the narco state from the political process that it greases the wheels on.
The British were losing massive amounts of silver to China in the late 19th early 20th century. The Chinese wanted nothing from the Westerns but their silver for their tea. The British brought the traditions of smoking Opium to the Chinese(This tradition came from the British tobacco smoking tradition). Millions and Millions of Chines became addicted. The Empior seen his country rot from the inside,(It was know even in the Times of Tamerlane that a broken man is worth nothing to the state. Broken people do not offer defense for themselves or their state) ordered the Ports closed to the opium. This began the Opium Wars which the British won. Generations of Men where destroyed. What value is a broken man to his family, to himself, to anything.
Is it wisdom to snare at traditions of the past? We stand on the sunburn shoulders and the wrinkled brows of men that never shared half the property we do to day.

Letter to Andrew: Earn It.

Wow wow wow. I do not bear false witness towards anyone I know. My consciences clean at least on this one topic. As for for my own conduce on the Shabot, 4th commandment, I will let my study of the Word and Spirit instruct me. As far as church goes, I was first suppose to go for fellowship, then Corporate Worship, then to put someone over me that doesn't know half of what I forgot, now it's for different views. Why should I care about views? It is truth first and last. It is not "What do I think of scripture? What does he think of scripture?" NO I don't matter. I just want the truth. You want to sell your guilt trips have at it, but If you want call me to repentance, EARN IT. Be better. Know more then me. Pray more then me. Lead a better life. Have more fruit. Have a more faith. Be right all the time and at great pains. Suffer more for the Word. And be better at every argument. What someone hands you a degree now you can teach? That's the gym membership. The iron is the dues. As for authority, you have no rights to my ears nor to be heard. But even then I do not call anyone my father because I just have one Father and He is in Heaven.

Letters to Andrew ~8:Naming Names.

A letter to my dear friend and brother in the faith.


You want me to name names. I will mix my Heretics with people that say nothing. Ed Young JR, Joel Olstein, Rich Warren, our pastor from PBA, Beth Moore. You must excuse me as I don't waste my time searching for aweful teachers.

None of these guys are Spurgeon, Jones, Nee, my father, Tom Bradford or Calvin. THey not waste their time on Straw men. They don't speak Greek to cover up they don't know anything.

Why Should I go hear teachers of today? Why should i grieve my Soul? Why should I frustrate my mind? Why should I wear out one thread of my paints in pew of these white washed tomes. These Damed men. These men that hold The Word in such contempt.

No! Least my Mind thinks it something superior of it's own nature. No! I am not the smartest nor the most handsome nor emotional stable nor the most up standing citizen, nor popular, nor suceesful. No, Those men litter the Small group leadership. The disciple of todays teacher infest the very thought today. There is no yearning for truth that can withstand.

Christ Loved me and called me. Knowing my character, still in unfathomable grace and thoughts above us all, called me.

So if you are looking for sympathy from me, don't hold your breath. I have my sympathy for the vile muslim(and yes they are vile) then the teachers of the false Word.

I didn't spell check any of this. God didn't save a great speller He saved me.

Allowing Satan To Kill You

This is for my Brothers and sisters in the faith. There was a man dieing of a decease. He chalked it up to chance. There was another man in the same situation chalked it up to bad genes. Still another man whom chalked it up to some other pop philosophy or cliché. Then there was a Christian man, he chalked it up to the Lord wanting this for his life. Did the Christian man receive a Devin revelation. Did his death advance the kingdom? So what is different from his story to the other three. All four live with out discernible Power of Christ in their lives or deaths.
What is the difference between me failing because I do not earnestly beat down heavens gate to receive a help to a weakness or a enemy, then another unbeliever? None NONE NONE NONE. On your knees die searching to come into the presence of Yehovah. Satan, or cancer, or the moon landing on you. We do not die like that. We don't die of random causes. We don't die to the power of the world. AND we don't die of some cliché.
There are better men to go in to Spiritual Warfare then me. I will link latter.

On The Squares

The kids of the Great Depression grew up around poverty and death. So after 15 solid years of Depression they want to create stability and they did so. Think Donna Reed. Their ungrateful children(baby boomer) despised their hard working parents. The Baby Boomers rejected their parents and previous generation, labeling them as uptight, intolerant, superficial, nonspiritual(Christians I am looking at you). They had so much property that they begin to drink the Kool-aid. They are so pampered they can imagine truly bad times. Look at history not the past 50 years. Actual world history. Disease, armies at the gate, tyrants. What makes you so much more special then every other culture and every other people? What of my generation X and Y? I don't know, we sure aren't any more moral or courageous.

Water

A litter of water is transport from a clean fresh water lake a thousand miles away. It is processed and filtered. It is cleaner water then any of your ancestors and most people in the world will ever know. It is then transported threw endless amount of tubes to us. So that we can take these clean water, cleaner then anyone dreamed of 200 years ago, and poop in it.

One Question, 9 years. Not for this generation

This is not for anyone living today. September 11, 2001. The largest attack in America was successfully carried out. Not behind close doors. Not with out coverage. The largest event of the decade, the even that shaped the decade occurred. For the past 9 years the one question was only asked once with any seriousness to the answer. The question is so taboo it is not even in the main stream media. For the past 9 years there was an inquisition out for anyone that merely disagreed with following question.
The question is, "Does Islam, with no hyphens, in laws(sharia law), writings, molding, adherence, and preaching, seek the destruction of western culture? Can Islam, as practices by Mohammad, live peacefully 21st Century Non-Islamic world." This question has only one answer. It is a serious question for a not so serious generation.

The Bible is Hard.

The Bible is Hard. Putting aside the fact that many people will not understand what is inside of it for the Lord Blinds their eyes, so that they may be always seeing but never perceiving(Mark 14:12). It is also just plain hard.
In Chemistry you don't need to read the giants of the past, because that was then and we now have moved on. In History you can settal on one event or time and become an expert in just that one topic and know that one topic in whole and with much authority and accuracy. Economics you learn the principles then everything is built on those principles, the rest of the study is gravy. Math never changes, two in these gerneration is two a thousand gerneration beyond it no matter the learnes preceptions.
If you lived in Beruit Lebanon during the mid-1940s, you never saw a cite that you never saw in your life, but was extremely common to your ansecters. It was always there. You could just never see it. You have an intellicual understand of it's existance but you never saw it and they might as well not exist. When the Muslims bomb Beruit's power, the lights in the city went out and you could see the stars. Today we live in the Post-industerial revolution. Post-agirucultural. We live with Neo-classical thought. We live with concepts like freedom. None of live under a king. None of us seen slavery. Pedophilia is actually looked down on. Where there is only a hand full of religions. We live were we do not know the name, muchless rely on our neighbor. We live without needing to avenge our distiant relatives death, because if we don't the murder walks free. We have police which is an extremely recent invention.
All this and I have not even spoken of the Hebrew lanaguage or thought. The Hebrew idioms. The Chaldean infuluance on the Hebrew language. Armaic. Greek.
I have not mentions the self referal understand that the writers assume you know. The Laws and external rules that assume you understand.
Do I long for the past, no. Do I want to take a hammer to the machines, no.

Niceness

My brothers and sisters, in the One True faith(which is in Christ), have bought a bill of goods that are no good. It goes like this. Christians are suppose to be genital, nice, not hurting someones feelings, push overs, and always happy to see each other like as seeing long lost son. This is disingenuous and off putting and all of the World know it. No one cared what American Idol judge Paula Abdul had to say about the preformance. No one. It's just noise. Flowery noise.
Now the natural inclination of an arguer is to take the extreme on the next scale. "Oh so we should curse and slander each other." No. How do we treat our blood relation? Do we put up with their crap? Do we always do what they say? Do we call them out for acting foolish? Do we jest? Is there not a big difference between how your mom sees you (that you can do no wrong), and how your brother or sister sees you. Don't be guilted in to someone that is not you. So what is my hard fast rule. Other then love each other. I don't have one.

The Mint, Where Hard Currency is Made.

"Our sins were dealt with by the blood, we ourselves are dealt with by the cross. The Blood procures our pardon, the cross procures deliverance from what we are in Adam. The Blood can wash away my sins, but it cannot wash away my old man:I need the cross to crucify me-the sinner."
-Watchman Nee "Normal Christian Life"

My blog is primarily about my religion, faith in the finish work of Yeshua haMashia, the Son of Yehovah, the King of Glory. With a Dabbling in of economics, my view of culture and my Politics.
